Reports: NBA Referee Bet On Games
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2943095
Ciffs: NBA ref was in deep gambling debt. The mob he owed gave him the option to fix games in order to remove the amount due.
It had to be the jackass who ejected Duncan while Tim was sitting on the bench.
NEW YORK -- The FBI is investigating allegations that a veteran NBA referee bet on basketball games over the past two seasons, including ones in which he officiated.
According to a law enforcement official, authorities are examining whether the referee made calls to affect the point spread in games on which he or associates had wagered.
The law enforcement official, who spoke to the AP on Friday on condition of anonymity, said the referee was aware of the investigation and had made arrangements to surrender as early as next week to face charges. The official, who did not identify the referee, is familiar with the investigation but was not authorized to speak publicly about the ongoing investigation.
